WindowBlinds doesn't like skinned applications

WindowBlinds seems to reek havoc on skinned apps.

For example.

- Steam retracts into a locked minimised title bar and becomes unusable.

- Visual Studio fails catastrophically half the time, otherwise works perfectly.

- Krita's frames go inward but work perfectly.

P.S. WindowBlinds defaults to a version of the Windows 10 skin with the wrong system colours. This can be fixed by changing the theme in settings. Fix it.

P.P.S. Explorer keeps opening DeskScapes with the licence expired so I uninstalled it.

Just my take.

Been using Windowblinds since 2000, never it reek havoc for me.

Of course knowing how Windows and other applications evolve there will always be some application that will not be 100% compatible with Windowblinds. And as a user, I understand it very well.

Steam : Not using Steam, no comment.

Visual Studio : I installed it, try few minutes of it. And It look okay for me. But I am not a Coder so, no comment.

Have Krita 3.3.2 installed : learn some painting skill on it, never good at it, but, Windowblinds have no problem with it. At least not that I care to notice.
